The electroencephalogram (EEG) signal in the brain–computer interface (BCI) has suffered great cross-subject variability. The BCI system needs to be retrained before each time it is used, which is a waste of resources and time. Thus, it is difficult to generalize a fixed classification method for all subjects. Therefore, the transfer learning method proposed in this article, which combines XDAWN spatial filter and Riemannian Geometry classifier (RGC), can achieve offline cross-subject transfer learning in the P300-speller paradigm. The XDAWN spatial filter is used to enhanced the P300 components in the raw signal as well as reduce its dimensions. Then, the Riemannian Geometry Mean (RGM) is used as the reference matrix to perform the affine transformation of the symmetric positive definite (SPD) covariance matrix calculated from the filtered signal, which makes the data from different subjects comparable. Finally, the RGC is used to obtain the result of transfer learning experiments. The proposed algorithm was evaluated on two datasets (Dataset I from real patients and Dataset II from the laboratory). By comparing with two state-of-the-art and classic algorithms in the current BCI field, Ensemble of Support Vector Machine (E-SVM) and Stepwise Linear Discriminant Analysis (SWLDA), the maximum averaged area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) score of our algorithm reached 0.836, proving the potential of our proposed algorithm.

Nowadays, biometric modalities have gained popularity in security systems. Nevertheless, the conventional commercial-grade biometric system addresses some issues. The biggest problem is that they can be imposed by artificial biometrics. The electroencephalogram (EEG) is a possible solution. It is nearly impossible to replicate because it is dependent on human mental activity. Several studies have already demonstrated a high level of accuracy. However, it requires a large number of sensors and time to collect the signal. This study proposed a biometric system using single-channel EEG recorded during resting eyes open (EO) conditions. A total of 45 EEG signals from 9 subjects were collected. The EEG signal was segmented into 5 second lengths. The alpha band was used in this study. Discrete wavelet transform (DWT) with Daubechies type 4 (db4) was employed to extract the alpha band. Power spectral density (PSD) was extracted from each segment as the main feature. Linear discriminant analysis (LDA) and support vector machine (SVM) were used to classify the EEG signal. The proposed method achieved 86% accuracy using LDA only from the third segment. Therefore, this study showed that it is possible to utilize single-channel EEG during a resting EO state in a biometric system.

Classification of brain signal features is a crucial process for any brain–computer interface (BCI) device, including speller systems. The positive P300 component of visual event-related potentials (ERPs) used in BCI spellers has individual variations of amplitude and latency that further changse with brain abnormalities such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). This leads to the necessity for the users to train the speller themselves, which is a very time-consuming procedure. To achieve subject-independence in a P300 speller, ensemble classifiers are proposed based on classical machine learning models, such as the support vector machine (SVM), linear discriminant analysis (LDA), k-nearest neighbors (kNN), and the convolutional neural network (CNN). The proposed voters were trained on healthy subjects’ data using a generic training approach. Different combinations of electroencephalography (EEG) channels were used for the experiments presented, resulting in single-channel, four-channel, and eight-channel classification. ALS patients’ data represented robust results, achieving more than 90% accuracy when using an ensemble of LDA, kNN, and SVM on four active EEG channels data in the occipital area of the brain. The results provided by the proposed ensemble voting models were on average about 5% more accurate than the results provided by the standalone classifiers. The proposed ensemble models could also outperform boosting algorithms in terms of computational complexity or accuracy. The proposed methodology shows the ability to be subject-independent, which means that the system trained on healthy subjects can be efficiently used for ALS patients. Applying this methodology for online speller systems removes the necessity to retrain the P300 speller.

The most objective method for drowsiness detection is the physiological method. One of the physiological methods used is an electroencephalogram (EEG). In this research wavelet transform is used as a feature extraction and using support vector machine (SVM) as a classifier. We proposed an experiment of retrieval data which is designed by using modified-EAR and EEG signal. From the SVM training process, with the 5-fold cross validation, Quadratic kernel has the highest accuracy 84.5% then others.

Music can evoke a variety of emotions, which may be manifested by distinct signals on the electroencephalogram (EEG). Many previous studies have examined the associations between specific aspects of music, including the subjective emotions aroused, and EEG signal features. However, no study has comprehensively examined music-related EEG features and selected those with the strongest potential for discriminating emotions. So, this paper conducted a series of experiments to identify the most influential EEG features induced by music evoking different emotions (calm, joy, sad, and angry). We extracted 27-dimensional features from each of 12 electrode positions then used correlation-based feature selection method to identify the feature set most strongly related to the original features but with lowest redundancy. Several classifiers, including Support Vector Machine (SVM), C4.5, LDA, and BPNN, were then used to test the recognition accuracy of the original and selected feature sets. Finally, results are analyzed in detail and the relationships between selected feature set and human emotions are shown clearly. Through the classification results of 10 random examinations, it could be concluded that the selected feature sets of Pz are more effective than other features when using as the key feature set to classify human emotion statues.

The development of detection methodologies for reliable drowsiness tracking is a challenging task requiring both appropriate signal inputs and accurate and robust algorithms of analysis. The aim of this research is to develop an advanced method to detect the drowsiness stage in electroencephalogram (EEG), the most reliable physiological measurement, using the promising Machine Learning methodologies. The methods used in this paper are based on Machine Learning methodologies such as stacked autoencoder with softmax layers. Results obtained from 62 volunteers indicate 100% accuracy in drowsy/wakeful discrimination, proving that this approach can be very promising for use in the next generation of medical devices. This methodology can be extended to other uses in everyday life in which the maintaining of the level of vigilance is critical. Future works aim to perform extended validation of the proposed pipeline with a wide-range training set in which we integrate the photoplethysmogram (PPG) signal and visual information with EEG analysis in order to improve the robustness of the overall approach.

Analysis of quantified voice patterns is useful in the detection and assessment of dysphonia and related phonation disorders. In this paper, we first study the linear correlations between 22 voice parameters of fundamental frequency variability, amplitude variations, and nonlinear measures. The highly correlated vocal parameters are combined by using the linear discriminant analysis method. Based on the probability density functions estimated by the Parzen-window technique, we propose an interclass probability risk (ICPR) method to select the vocal parameters with small ICPR values as dominant features and compare with the modified Kullback-Leibler divergence (MKLD) feature selection approach. The experimental results show that the generalized logistic regression analysis (GLRA), support vector machine (SVM), and Bagging ensemble algorithm input with the ICPR features can provide better classification results than the same classifiers with the MKLD selected features. The SVM is much better at distinguishing normal vocal patterns with a specificity of 0.8542. Among the three classification methods, the Bagging ensemble algorithm with ICPR features can identify 90.77% vocal patterns, with the highest sensitivity of 0.9796 and largest area value of 0.9558 under the receiver operating characteristic curve. The classification results demonstrate the effectiveness of our feature selection and pattern analysis methods for dysphonic voice detection and measurement.

Electroencephalogram (EEG) is an effective indicator for the detection of driver fatigue. Due to the significant differences in EEG signals across subjects, and difficulty in collecting sufficient EEG samples for analysis during driving, detecting fatigue across subjects through using EEG signals remains a challenge. EasyTL is a kind of transfer-learning model, which has demonstrated better performance in the field of image recognition, but not yet been applied in cross-subject EEG-based applications. In this paper, we propose an improved EasyTL-based classifier, the InstanceEasyTL, to perform EEG-based analysis for cross-subject fatigue mental-state detection. Experimental results show that InstanceEasyTL not only requires less EEG data, but also obtains better performance in accuracy and robustness than EasyTL, as well as existing machine-learning models such as Support Vector Machine (SVM), Transfer Component Analysis (TCA), Geodesic Flow Kernel (GFK), and Domain-adversarial Neural Networks (DANN), etc.

A method for drunk driving detection using Feature Selection based on the Random Forest was proposed. First, driving behavior data were collected using a driving simulator at Beijing University of Technology. Second, the features were selected according to the Feature Importance in the random forest. Third, a dummy variable was introduced to encode the geometric characteristics of different roads so that drunk driving under different road conditions can be detected with the same classifier based on the random forest. Finally, the linear discriminant analysis, support vector machine, and AdaBoost classifiers were used and compared with the random forest. The accuracy, F1 score, receiver operating characteristic curve, and area under the curve value were used to evaluate the performance of the classifiers. The results show that Accelerator Depth, Speed, Distance to the Center of the Lane, Acceleration, Engine Revolution, Brake Depth, and Steering Angle have important influences on identifying the drivers’ states and can be used to detect drunk driving. Specifically, the classifiers with Accelerator Depth outperformed the other classifiers without Accelerator Depth. This means that Accelerator Depth is an important feature. Both the AdaBoost and random forest classifiers have an accuracy of 81.48%, which verified the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Abstract Background For an effective artificial pancreas (AP) system and an improved therapeutic intervention with continuous glucose monitoring (CGM), predicting the occurrence of hypoglycemia accurately is very important. While there have been many studies reporting successful algorithms for predicting nocturnal hypoglycemia, predicting postprandial hypoglycemia still remains a challenge due to extreme glucose fluctuations that occur around mealtimes. The goal of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of easy-to-use, computationally efficient machine-learning algorithm to predict postprandial hypoglycemia with a unique feature set. Methods We use retrospective CGM datasets of 104 people who had experienced at least one hypoglycemia alert value during a three-day CGM session. The algorithms were developed based on four machine learning models with a unique data-driven feature set: a random forest (RF), a support vector machine using a linear function or a radial basis function, a K-nearest neighbor, and a logistic regression. With 5-fold cross-subject validation, the average performance of each model was calculated to compare and contrast their individual performance. The area under a receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) and the F1 score were used as the main criterion for evaluating the performance. Results In predicting a hypoglycemia alert value with a 30-min prediction horizon, the RF model showed the best performance with the average AUC of 0.966, the average sensitivity of 89.6%, the average specificity of 91.3%, and the average F1 score of 0.543. In addition, the RF showed the better predictive performance for postprandial hypoglycemic events than other models. Conclusion In conclusion, we showed that machine-learning algorithms have potential in predicting postprandial hypoglycemia, and the RF model could be a better candidate for the further development of postprandial hypoglycemia prediction algorithm to advance the CGM technology and the AP technology further.

Resistance to drought stress is one of the most favorable traits in breeding programs yet drought stress is one of the most poorly addressed biological processes for both phenomics and genetics. In this study, we investigated the potential of using a time-series chlorophyll fluorescence (ChlF) analysis to dissect the ChlF fingerprints of salt overly sensitive (SOS) mutants under drought stress. Principle component analysis (PCA) was used to identify a shifting pattern of different genotypes including sos mutants and wild type (WT) Col-0. A time-series deep-learning algorithm, sparse auto encoders (SAEs) neural network, was applied to extract time-series ChlF features which were used in four classification models including linear discriminant analysis (LDA), k-nearest neighbor classifier (KNN), Gaussian naive Bayes (NB) and support vector machine (SVM). The results showed that the discrimination accuracy of sos mutants SOS1-1, SOS2-3, and wild type Col-0 reached 95% with LDA classification model. Sequential forward selection (SFS) algorithm was used to obtain ChlF fingerprints of the shifting pattern, which could address the response of sos mutants and Col-0 to drought stress over time. Parameters including QY, NPQ and Fm, etc. were significantly different between sos mutants and WT. This research proved the potential of ChlF imaging for gene function analysis and the study of drought stress using ChlF in a time-series manner.
